Megohmmeter Model 1015
2. PRODUCT FEATURES
2.1 DESCRIPTION
The Megohmmeter Model 1015 is a True Megohmmeter
®
analog instru-
ment with four easy-to-read scales.
The M
Ω
scale is an easy-to-read log scale graduated from 0.1 to 1000
M
Ω
(yellow background) at 500 V and 1000 V. The
Ω
scale is linear with a
range from (0 to 10)
Ω
(white background).
To use the (0 to 1000)
Ω
scale, take the reading on the (0 to 10)
Ω
range
and multiply the reading by 100. The AC voltage scale is linear with a
range of (0 to 600) V
AC
(white background). Continuity tests are done with
a test current of 200 mA.
The colored battery scale has a range of green for a good battery and a
range of red or lower for a defective battery.
A built-in battery tester is provided by simply pressing the yellow push
button when the selector switch is in the OFF position.
Voltmeter (safety check) with a range of (0 to 600) V
AC
is standard and
works when the selector switch is in the 500 V position or the 1000 V posi-
tion.
